If you are writing a pump program – you can discover that the 41 available programming phases is not enough. There are several ways around this.
Here’s some suggestions and some links to help you:
- Is your code bloated? – are you doing unnecessary operations – eliminate them.
- Can you see a sequence of instructions in your pump program that is repeated one or more time – make them into a subroutine, which will reduce your need for that sequence to a single instance.
- Can you change a sequence to a loop? I see this very often with people making delay loops.
- Are you trying to use software sequences where a simple hardware input could trigger a change in program flow?
- Did you know that most pumps can be upgraded to the X1 version of the pump control software? This gives you more functions and far more program phases than the standard 41. The new functionality means that a single phase can be used to express a ramping rate – in place of many phases of your own code. You get a smoother ramp too!
